Warriors assistant coach Michael Malone is expected to interview for the Bobcats' head-coaching vacancy Tuesday, according to Yahoo.

It was considered a coup for Golden State to land Malone last offseason, considering he was a leading candidate for the head-coaching job that went to Mark Jackson. The Warriors made Malone, previously a Hornets assistant, the league's highest-paid assistant at a reported $2.25 million over three years while promising they wouldn't hold him back should he be offered a head-coaching job.
